cozyman··on A cell so minimal that it challenges definitions of life
This isn't convincing to me, I'm not disputing that mutations exist. Do they become different categories of being?

Macro Evolution has always seemed like a philosophy/ideology/religion to me with a veneer of science.

AS Christians we don't expect to receive mystical and transcendent visions, although they can happen it's exceedingly rare and not something the majority of people will see in their life.

Satan is far more likely to give you a mystical vision that leads you away from the faith than for you to receive a Divine vision.

Lord have mercy, I reject satan and all his pomps.
cozyman··on The Polymarket users betting on when Jesus will return
So Jesus: 1. Founded a church 2. told the apostles to make all nations disciplines and baptize them, bringing them into that church 3. The apostles wrote letters to those churches instructing the people on how to live a christian life 4. The successors of those apostles carried on their teachings, spreading more churches all over the world and convening councils to clarify doctrine

sounds a lot like a religion, how do you define religion?

cozyman··on The Polymarket users betting on when Jesus will return
Jesus founded a church in Matthew 16. He literally said go forth and make disciples of all nations. I could go through scripture and demonstrate why almost every claim you said here is false, but you don't care about scripture, just emotion.
